RADIO FREQUENCY RADIATION
HAZARD - KEEP CLEAR
1 METRE MINIMUM
OBTAINING LICENSING FOR INMARSAT TERMINALS
Under rights given under ITU Radio Regulations, local telecommunications
administrations establish and enforce national rules and regulations governing
types of emissions, power levels, and other parameters that effect the purity of
signal, which may be radiated in the various frequency bands of the radio spec-
trum.
To legally operate an Inmarsat terminal, it is necessary to obtain permission from
the local telecommunications regulatory authorities of the country you are operat-
ing within. Using your terminal in any country without permission causes you to
run the risk of confiscation of the terminal or legal action from local authorities.
Normal practice for taking telecommunications into another country is to apply for
a license before travel. If a license has not been obtained before travel, the
equipment may be put into storage by local authorities until such time as a li-
cense is obtained.
All specifications are subject to change without notice.
RADIATION WARNING
High levels of radio frequency radiation are consid-
ered health hazardous. Although no single value of
"safe radiation level" has been agreed upon by all
countries, the American National Standards Institute
(ANSI/LEEE C95.1-1992) recommends that people
should not be exposed to radiation stronger than
1 milliwatt per square centimetre at the frequencies
used in the WORLDPHONE terminal. Accordingly,
the operator of the terminal should ensure that the
area extending 1 metre from the front of the antenna
be kept clear of personnel when the terminal is trans-
mitting.
